There ia no cause for alarm, imagine, over
the rather extraordinary power conferred on
the committee for codifying the laws. The
legality Of the grant Is somewhat questionable,
though many lawyers think it entirely valid.
The code, however, need not bs adopted or
enforced as the official acts OF the territory to
make the work of great value. There could
aearcely be u worse oonglomaraiion Of laws
than now exist IN Dakota. While the founda-
tion is good, In the main, the work has been
added to and subtracted from, amended, al
tered, eliminated, rebuilt, expunged, revived,
enlarged, elaborated, stricken out and made
over, until it is vague, contradictory, mean-
ingess in some places and in many places alb
surd. While the commission will scarcely at
tempt to abroCate any statute, they will so
compile the average existing laws as to clearly
show what provisions have been repealed, al
tered or amended, and this, Of itself, will prove
of great utility, even though not oiacially pro-
mulgatad as the law. Lovissee's code, though
not an authority, is probably more generally
used in the territory than the official code. II
the prospective compilation is merely employed
for convenience in determining what the laws
really are, and shall awaite legislative sanction
before becoming authoritative, it will prove Of
very great value to the territoly.-Gov. Pierce
in Pioneer Press.

Speaking Of the assessment of railroad lands
the jamestown CAPITAL says 'The land COM
missioner Of the Northern Pacific, Mr.. Lam
born, has filed protest against the assess
ment OF the unsold lands of the company in
this county, on the ground that these lands are
exempt under the gross earnings law of the
legislature Of 1SS3 There ia no doubt fine
technical point involved In the question. Hon,
johnson Nickeus, Of this county, who was
champion of the gross earnings law In the ter
ritorial council, advocated BECAUSE at that time
he believed the lands exempt under the United
States law, as has since been decided by the
supreme court in the Traill county case, on ac-
count OF the lien orthe government upon them
for the cost Of survey. Later an act of con-
gress was passed making these lands taxable
aud providing for the immediate collection of
the survey fees. Now, as we have said, the
question is whether o. not these lands are ex-
empt from taxation under the gross earnings
law. The territorial auditor and governor
think not, and direct the lands to be assessed"

Treasurer Hope School TOWNSHIP
Tower City vs.. Hone.

On Saturday the Tower City base ball club
visited Hope and indulged in a friendly con-
test with the Hope nine MIR. Knowles acted
as umpire, and gave good satisfaction. The
visitors did not make a score till the sixth
inning, when wild throw by Earl Pepper let
two men in, shortly after there was lost ball.
which gave them two more runs. These were
all the scores made by the visitors during the
game, being shut out eight times. The game
attracted large crowd. The Tower City boys
did some fine fielding and batted Warner
heavily, but the fates were against them. The
foloWino was the score.
